Google Index Report

Google may temporarily or permanently remove sites from its index and search results if it believes it is obligated to do so by law, if the sites do not meet Google’s quality guidelines, or for other reasons, such as if the sites detract from users’ ability to locate relevant information.

As Google keeps on weeding out poor-quality web pages and the pages with errors, it is important that you should make sure that your web pages are free from any error.

HTML Sitemap Check

“It is an actual page of your website that outlines the complete structure of your site, and that links to all the important pages on your site,” says Daniel Scocco in his article on Search Engine Journal.

Create a page on your website that links to all important pages of your website. And build and acquire links for this page. It will boost the SEO of your website.

Use of Pagination

Pagination is used to organize content on websites. If the content of any page of your website continues to more than one page, it is necessary to use pagination to let Google know that it is the same content, organized separately.

Link Analysis

Link analysis is an important part of the technical SEO audit of your website.

Not only should you check internal links of your website, but you should also check external links of your website from time to time to make sure that your website follows Google’s guidelines for Link Schemes.

Mobile Friendliness

We are living in a time when mobile searches are more than desktop searches. So it is imperative that you should adopt the best Mobile SEO strategies.

Social Media Integration

Social media integration into your website offers many benefits. In addition to building your brand and reputation, social media integration also helps you to expand your network to grow your business.

What about you? Do you want to add anything to this technical SEO audit checklist 2019? Please leave it in the comment section. I’d love to know about it.

Not many people understand TECHNICAL SEO. Good that you write a detailed post about it. Most of the people I know only talk about links and quality content. Technical SEO is completely different and which only a few gems understand.

Let me ask you this… Have you found keeping pages off the sitemap or using robots to exclude pages has benefited or hurt? I’ve got several pages of our site that are payment related pages and don’t want them showing in SERPS BUT… I think they should still be listed in sitemap for full inventory of pages.

Glad! You liked it. If you have any webpage that you don’t want to see in search results, you better block such pages both in robots and put noindex tag as well. Because, keeping them available to search engines will not make any sense whatsoever.
